BushcraftUK was established in 2000 as a place to meet like minded people and share skills and knowledge.

SummerMoot
20 Years of skill sharing! The Sumer Moot is two weeks of camping, 5 days of workshops, lots of great company in a beautiful woodland.
WinterMoot
Our Winter BushMoot is a Festival of Outdoor Cookery
The idea behind the Winter Moot is that we have a week in the woods with no pressures, it can be a time to relax, a time to practice skills and have a great time. The focus of this Moot is all about cooking-based skills so there is the opportunity to learn, share knowledge, or just do our own thing.
